SCCHM3003 Food Chemistry
This unit focusses on the function, reactions, interactions and effect of processing on food components, primarily focussing on water, carbohydrates, proteins and lipids. There is a major focus on how food composition influences food quality. The composition and nutritional aspects of minerals in foods; stability and analysis of vitamins in food and chemistry of food toxicants and contaminants are also covered.
Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) unit fee
A Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) is one that is subsidised by the Australian Government, which means students only pay the student contribution amount of the tuition fee. CSPs are only available to eligible domestic students.
The student contribution amount depends on the unit and how much funding the Government provides. Each unit is classified into a band based on its discipline (which may be different to your overall course discipline).
2025 student contribution amount: $1,164
2025 grandfathered student contribution amount (for students who commenced before 1 Jan 2021*): $1,164
* If you are a continuing student (who commenced your course before 1 January 2021) you will continue paying the same amount as you would have, had legislative reforms not been implemented for any units that would otherwise have an increased student contribution amount.
